It’s always expensive and messy. The difference now is that we have expanded so fast that junior people are all over the place and displacements will eliminate overstaffed seats on all fleets. It’s still ugly, just not as much as during years past. Keeping thousands of us on the payroll with nothing to do isn’t exactly cheap either.
